    You are the idiot because the people you pay to lead this country treat you like "shit" but you treat them like gods. Pentsil worked hard for his money and deserves your respect.

  • Sammy the Sheriff 7 years ago

  • APONKYE 7 years ago

    The policeman must have tried to extort monies from him and if Painstil refused this crooked policeman must have framed him up.

    Why Always John my friend put up a good character

  • anokwale 7 years ago

    Marriage without maturity and money too early leads to conflict after conflict. At this point, it might make sense to divorce if you are ending up in jail.

    What did the police officer do to him ?

  • Kofi Bill Clinton 7 years ago

    This is ghanaweb always exhibiting their ignorance and mediocrity. Sometimes when you look at some of the stories you're compelled to ask what kind of journalism is this.

  • Danny 7 years ago

    Who writes these stories on Ghanaweb? Seriously, how do you say someone was an eyewitness when they told you they heard about the scuffle and went to the police station after the fact? How does that make the person an eyewitn ...

  • DIAMOND 7 years ago

    Good logic, Danny, if it were about the PUNCHING, but I think the writer was referring to the SIGHT of "Mr. Israeli Flag"* behind bars.
    After all, the headline is about him being "locked up in Police cells".

    *By the way, ...

  • The Monitor, Oakland, California 7 years ago

    It's a shame.

  • DIAMOND 7 years ago

    EYEWITNESS to BEING in cell, guys, NOT EYEWITNESS to the BEATING-UP.

    The writer was referring to the EYEWITNESS seeing him in the cell, NOT seeing him beating up anybody.

    GEEZ!

    This is no news. Paintsil always spent a night or two behind bars whenever he visited Ghana. He missed the cells so much.

    Good! Such fools belong to jail. Being a soccer player does not give you a license to hit anyone, talkless a police commander. He should be prosecuted to the full extent of the law.
